Go After My Ex-wife novel Chapter 142

"Did the police arrived there?"

"We called the police at that time, but the police couldn't find any evidence at all, and even asked one of our men to take a statement." Luca was a little helpless.

"I think this matter has something to do with Bill in all likelihood. Should we assemble our men to teach him a lesson? It's really hateful. He dares to be so arrogant!" Another young man was even more furious. He wanted to take revenge for Aron directly.

Calvin shook his head just after a thought. His eyes darkened.

Right now, the most important thing was to save Aron first. He had to be well.

They couldn’t be so impulsive.

Obviously, things had become more and more complicated. But it could also be seen that the other party had been thinking about making a move.

Now even they dared to attack his men directly! How dare!

These days, Aron's investigation of Ethan’s case had alerted the other party.

This was a warning to Calvin!

So it could be imagined how complicated the case was. Belle's face with tears and weeping appeared in front of Calvin’s eyes. What kind of pressure did she live under? If this matter was not resolved, they wouldn’t have a peaceful life. Now the enemy was hiding in the dark and knew them, but they had no ideas about them at all. There were so many things to deal with.

Calvin calmed down.

They wanted to scare him? Calvin had never been afraid of it. He didn't believe that he couldn’t deal with the matter!

Belle's car galloped into Harvey Mansion like a wind, then she got on the electric car and walked towards the Fragrance Garden.

Was Calvin back?

After being away for so many hours, she realized that she missed him so much and wanted to see him. They had been with each other these days. Once they were separated, even for a while, she would feel flustered. Besides, he left in hurry.

The living room was brightly lit.

Paige and Lexie were sitting on the couch, talking and laughing. Belle didn’t see Calvin.

She suppressed her anxiousness and walked into the living room. Facing the gaze that Paige was looking at her, she politely greeted her, "Good evening, Ma’am".

Paige was wearing a blue cheongsam with dark flowers on it and a fox fur coat. Although it was cold outside, it was as warm as spring in Fragrance Garden.

The entire Harvey Mansion had central air conditioning, which was not too hot or too dry, making people feel warm and very comfortable.

"Good evening." Paige had heard that Belle worked very hard in Harvey Corp. Besides, she did a lot of credit at the press conference. Now facing her, Paige didn’t pull a long face.

"Come and let’s have dinner together." Paige said calmly.

Belle was blushed because of worry. Although she was worried, after so many days Calvin’s love for her, she looked more beautiful and very attractive. She was full of vigor. Even Paige was surprised to her look now.

Belle was not only beautiful, but her temperament could make people feel refreshed. This was what Lexie couldn’t compare with. No wonder Calvin liked Belle so much.

If Belle was willing to be Calvin’s mistress, Paige wouldn’t be in a dilemma. In that case, not only could Calvin get the right to inheritance of Harvey Mansion, but also he could marry Lexie. For Paige and her family, there were only benefits and no harm.

Of course, the premise was that Belle was willing. Thinking of this, Paige showed a kind smile.

"Emily, pour a glass of water for Belle." She said to Emily who was standing on the side.

"Okay, Ma'am." Emily walked away with a smile.

Paige didn't call Belle Mrs. Harvey in front of the servants. Because she hoped that Calvin could get married with Lexie and Belle could be Calvin’s mistress. In her eyes, only Lexie could be Calvin’s wife.

"Belle, I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you went to M Country?" Lexie had already understood Paige's thoughts. She completely changed her attitude and pretended to be very close to Belle. She couldn’t let Paige think that she was narrow-minded and couldn’t tolerate others. She would have many opportunities in the future to bully Belle. Besides, it was so normal for a man to have a lover outside. Lexie immediately stood up and greeted Belle enthusiastically, "Come here, Belle, let's sit together."

Belle felt disgusted from the bottom of her heart when she saw Lexie's red lips. Her unusual hospitality gave Belle goose bumps. Although Belle felt so sick, she couldn’t show it in front of Paige. Because it would make her look uneducated.

Besides, her relationship with Calvin had become more and more clear. She couldn’t let Paige look down on her.

"There was something technically wrong with the production of luxury cars in Castle Peak Auto City, so I went to M Country to deal with it." Belle smiled faintly, sat down in the corner of the couch, and asked worriedly, "Ma’am, Calvin hasn’t come back yet?"

Her face was full of anxiety. She felt uneasy even after sitting down. It could be seen that she cared about Calvin very much.

Paige was very satisfied with Belle’s concern for her son. She said with a smile, "Aren't you with him? Why don't you know if he is back? We were just about to ask you. We’re just waiting for you two to have dinner."

Paige actually said so much to Belle in one breath, which was rare in normal times.

But Belle was still thinking about Calvin. She didn't notice Paige’s smile at all.

Lexie's face darkened, but soon she smiled again.

"I’m going to call him." She said happily, picking up the phone to dial.

"Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is power off." Everyone in the room heard the sound from the phone's speaker, and they were all silent.

Paige also got nervous now.

"It's alright. I remember when Calvin left today, he said he had something to deal with and he would be back later. Let's eat first. He probably won't eat at home." Seeing Paige's nervous face, Belle realized something. Only thinking about it for a while, she said suddenly as if she remembered something.

As soon as she said these words, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief, especially Paige. Calvin rarely had several meals at Harvey Mansion throughout the year. It was normal not to come back for dinner. There was no need to worry.

Paige stood up and let everyone eat first.

It was late at night. Belle was sitting in the bedroom restlessly.

From time to time, she watched her cell phone, hesitating whether to call him or not.

She remembered that she never took the initiative to call him because of missing him. But now she not only missed him, but also worried about him. She couldn't sleep at all.

Pacing back and forth in the bedroom, listening to the sound in the corridor outside, Belle knew it was late.

The night was getting terribly quiet.

The panic in Belle's heart gradually increased. Only she knew that Calvin left in a hurry because something happened.

As for what happened, she didn't know.

In the Criminal Investigation Public Security Branch, Calvin was sitting upright, while Luca and a few strong men in black stood on one side.

Deputy Director, Asher sat next to him.

Calvin flipped through the files in his hand, opened the surveillance video from time to time and watched the scene of Ethan's car accident repeatedly, frowning.

"Mr. Harvey, we are already investigating this case, but we still haven’t gotten any clues yet." Asher said helplessly when he saw Calvin personally come here to inquire about the case.

"Really?" Calvin sneered, while watching the surveillance video. Suddenly, he raised his head and asked, "Asher, your police officers are really doing your due diligence. Haven't you found any doubts about this case so far?"

Asher pondered and said, "It's not that there are no doubts. But it’s that the perpetrator escaped, so the case can't be traced."

"Humph." Calvin snorted and said coldly, "What does it mean that it is unable to be traced? Are you sure that the person who killed Ethan wasn’t on purpose? You know, Ethan was not an ordinary person. Citizens have no reaction for his death. As criminal policemen, don't you think it's a little abnormal?"

Asher's face was slightly red. He was slightly embarrassed. Then he said solemnly, "Mr. Harvey, here is only a branch. We can't disclose the case, let alone leak it to anyone. As for whether the news media knows it, it's not our business."

"Of course." Calvin said sarcastically, "Of course this is not your business, but did you think about it when you were investigating? It's such an obvious suspicion. As a public security officer, can you shift the blame just saying it’s not your business?"

The case had been delayed for so long. Some suspicious clues had already missed out! It was basically ignored. What made Calvin even more angry was that they ignored such important clues and said it was none of their business. It was so speechless.

Asher felt so ashamed, but he could only force a smile.

Calvin stared at him, leaned back and put his hands forward. It was already late.

"Asher, as far as I know, Ethan was your friend. Should you do your best to investigate the death of your friend?" Calvin sneered and asked.

Asher was even more embarrassed. They didn't dare to offend Calvin, but they couldn't help with the cause of Ethan’s death. Recently, they found that it might be related to Harvey Corp., but they couldn't find the car. Besides, he didn't dare to offend Calvin rashly.

After all, Asher was well-informed and shrewd. Soon, he asked tentatively.

"Mr. Harvey, I also regret the death of Ethan. What should we do?"

He knew that Calvin was not easy to fool, so he asked like that. It seemed to be ridiculing Calvin, but there were other intentions.

Calvin raised his eyebrows, slowly approached the desk, smiled slightly, and asked calmly, "Asher, I wonder if anyone has hinted at you behind our back?"

Asher was stunned when he heard the words. His face sank. He seemed to have something he couldn’t say. So he was just looking at Calvin.
